Not to be a wet blanket or anything, I must object to what you just said - While I admit that palestinian terrorists and their supporters are VERY evil people, the idea of saying they are not 'human' opens the door to unimaginable horrors (such as genocide, to exterminate the 'animals' etc...) - we must NEVER deny them their 'humanity', but instead must consider them the worst sort of human... This doesn't mean they don't need killin', because a lot of them do - but let's not get caught up in considering others 'not human'...

Just a thought... :0)

You're right. Even animals don't behave the way they do.

Re: Post 12

Well said. Whatever we like to think, we are ALL capable of such atrocities, some even try to justify them through religion etc.

What makes us difference is that we live in a society that has a fundamental framework of law to check such viciousness.

We must punish them as any common criminal, without pretending there is some Genetic predisposition of the Palistinians to be suicide bombers.

i agree with you chad fairbanks; the palestinians are human.

I agree. Whoever denies this aspect of human nature, forfeits the ability to understand and combat it.
